Judging by their twitter feed they are just late starting for some reason.

There were kids from the High Performance squad on court first playing a few competitive points.

Good start by Maia, broke in the first game by holding her own from the back while her opponent started more aggressively but made errors when she got to the net. Maia clinched the break with a flashing cross court FH winner and held for 2-0...

Edit - broke to 30 for 3*-0 with an inch perfect lob and a sizzling backhand winner. Very promising so far!!

Can't follow point by point, but they seem to be updating regularly with video footage.

2-0*

Maia moves to 5-1*, recovering from 0-40 and aided by a pinpoint BH down the line, an inch perfect smash and a questionable looking call against the Russian...

Excellent, Maia breaks again for 6-1 and will serve first in the second set

1st set to Miss Lumsden 6-1.

There were occasional moments when Savinykh demonstrated why she was once as high as 99, but on the whole she is making far too many UEs. Maia in contrast seems to be taking pretty much everything thrown at her and compensating for her relative lack of power with greater consistency, accuracy and variety than her opponent. Keep it up Maia!

Maia holds at the start of the 2nd, nearly let it go, had 40-15 but then faced a BP, errors started to creep in. But she got there.

6-1 1-0*...

Maia broke for 2-0 but now Savinykh is starting to get the big guns out....and a couple of her shots just caught the back line taking Maia by surprise.

Back on serve, 6-1 2-1*...

Maia just dropped serve, 6-1 2-3*.

Getting less free points through UEs than she was in the first set, and making more UEs herself. She's going to have to work for this one...

Arr, she was 40-0 up that game as well. Savinyhk just held to 15 and has *0-30 here, so getting a lot of momentum now.
